Spinning Out - New Series on Netflix

[monchan]

I'm just in for 2 eps. So far I appreciate it focuses on the topic of mental illness and also mentions concussion/injuries/sexual abuse that's often not taken seriously in other skating films.

 

Thou WHY PAIR SKATING AGAINNNN? I'm surprised there are many pair skating movies, while pairs might be the least popular discipline irl. What I find unreasonable is how she was badly hurt physically and mentally with a concussion, yet chose to start over again with a discipline that's even more prone to injuries/concussion? Just doesn't make sense from sport mentality. They could totally make them do ice dance, less risky elements and easy to build a romance plot etc. The girl can't even do 3T now, how can she do SBS triples later I wonder? OK I might watch more eps to see.
